CORECIVIC REPORTS THIRD QUARTER 2023 FINANCIAL RESULTS
MEETS ROBUST GROWTH IN CUSTOMER DEMAND
BRENTWOOD, Tenn. – November 6, 2023 – CoreCivic, Inc. (NYSE: CXW) (the Company) announced today its financial results for the third quarter of 2023.
Damon T. Hininger, CoreCivic’s President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “We are pleased with our third quarter results, and are optimistic that the post-pandemic environment will continue to result in increasing opportunities to serve our government partners. Federal, state, and local government agencies are experiencing an increase in the need for the solutions that we provide.”
Hininger continued, “We also continue to execute on our capital allocation strategy, repaying nearly $140 million of debt net of the change in cash so far this year, and reducing leverage, measured by net debt to EBITDA, to 2.8x using the trailing twelve months. Our debt reduction strategy has contributed to a meaningful reduction to interest expense from the prior year, despite an increasing interest rate environment. The amendment and extension of our bank credit facility obtained subsequent to quarter-end, which included an increase in size and an extension of the maturity to 2028, provides us with additional flexibility to execute on our long-term capital allocation strategy, including share repurchases.”
Financial Highlights – Third Quarter 2023
| • | Total revenue of $483.7 million |
| • | CoreCivic Safety revenue of $443.3 million |
| • | CoreCivic Community revenue of $29.8 million |
| • | CoreCivic Properties revenue of $10.5 million |
| • | Net Income of $13.9 million |
| • | Diluted earnings per share of $0.12 |
| • | Adjusted Diluted EPS of $0.14 |
| • | Normalized Funds From Operations per diluted share of $0.35 |
| • | Adjusted EBITDA of $75.2 million |
Third Quarter 2023 Financial Results Compared With Third Quarter 2022
Net income in the third quarter of 2023 totaled $13.9 million, or $0.12 per diluted share, compared with net income in the third quarter of 2022 of $68.3 million, or $0.58 per diluted share. Among other special items, net income in the prior year quarter included gains on sales of real estate assets of $83.8 million, or $0.53 per share, including a $77.5 million gain on the sale of our McRae Correctional Facility. Adjusted for special items, adjusted net income in the third quarter of 2023 was $15.6 million, or $0.14 per diluted share (Adjusted Diluted EPS), compared with adjusted net income in the third quarter of 2022 of $9.7 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, representing a per share increase of 75%. Special items for each period are presented in detail in the calculation of Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted EPS in the Supplemental Financial Information following the financial statements presented herein.

Third Quarter 2023 Financial Results

The $0.06 per share increase in Adjusted Diluted EPS primarily resulted from higher federal and state populations, combined with lower interest expense resulting from our debt reduction strategy. These earnings increases were partially offset by the expiration of our contract with the Federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP) at the McRae Correctional Facility on November 30, 2022, and the lease with the Oklahoma Department of Corrections (ODC) at our North Fork Correctional Facility on June 30, 2023. We sold the McRae facility to the state of Georgia in August 2022, but continued to lease the facility so that we could fulfill our obligations to the BOP through the expiration date of the contract.
While we continue to experience ongoing labor market pressures and continue to incur temporary incentives and related incremental operating expenses at certain facilities, we have achieved notable improvements in our attraction and retention rates as a result of our staffing strategies and due to an overall improvement in the hiring environment. We believe the investments in our staffing have positioned us to manage the increased number of residents we have begun to experience now that the remaining occupancy restrictions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic have been removed, most notably Title 42, which ended May 11, 2023. Under Title 42, asylum-seekers and anyone crossing the border without proper documentation or authority were denied entry at the United States border in an effort to contain the spread of COVID-19. Since May 11, 2023 through September 25, 2023, the number of individuals in the custody of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has increased 66%. Since May 11, 2023 through September 30, 2023, ICE detention populations within our facilities have increased by 4,729, or 84%, which we believe was possible, in part, because of our investments in staffing.
Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) was $72.8 million in the third quarter of 2023, compared with $147.9 million in the third quarter of 2022. Adjusted EBITDA, which excludes special items, was $75.2 million in the third quarter of 2023, compared with $68.4 million in the third quarter of 2022, an increase of 10.0%. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA was attributable to an increase in occupancy, combined with a general reduction in temporary staffing incentives, partially offset by the expiration of the contract with the BOP at the McRae facility and the lease with the ODC at the North Fork facility. The contract expirations at the McRae and North Fork facilities resulted in an aggregate reduction to EBITDA of $4.8 million from the third quarter of 2022.
Funds From Operations (FFO) was $38.5 million, or $0.34 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2023, compared to $33.3 million, or $0.28 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2022. Normalized FFO, which excludes special items, was $40.5 million, or $0.35 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2023, compared with $33.9 million, or $0.29 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2022, representing an increase in Normalized FFO per share of 21%. Normalized FFO was impacted by the same factors that affected Adjusted EBITDA, further improved by a reduction in interest expense as a result of our debt reduction strategy that isn’t reflected in Adjusted EBITDA.
Adjusted Net Income, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, FFO, and Normalized FFO, and, where appropriate, their corresponding per share amounts, are measures calculated and presented on the basis of methodologies other than in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Please refer to the Supplemental Financial Information and the note following the financial statements herein for further discussion and reconciliations of these measures to net income, the most directly comparable GAAP measure.

Business Updates
Capital Strategy
Debt Repayments. We continued to make progress on our debt reduction strategy, increasing our total debt repaid for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, to $137.7 million, net of the change in cash, including $65.0 million during the third quarter of 2023. We have no debt maturities until April 2026 when our 8.25% Senior Notes, which have an outstanding principal balance of $593.1 million, are scheduled to mature.
Amendment and Extension of Bank Credit Facility. On October 11, 2023, we entered into a Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (New Bank Credit Facility) in an aggregate amount of $400.0 million, effectively replacing our Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated May 12, 2022, which was an aggregate amount of $350.0 million. The New Bank Credit Facility, among other things, increases the available borrowings under the revolving credit facility from $250.0 million to $275.0 million and increases the size of the term loan from an initial balance of $100.0 million to $125.0 million, extends the maturity date to October 11, 2028 from May 12, 2026, and makes conforming changes to replace the Bloomberg Short-Term Bank Yield Index to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate. Further, financial covenants were modified to remove the $100.0 million limit of netting unrestricted cash and cash equivalents when calculating the consolidated total leverage ratio and the consolidated secured leverage ratio. At the closing of the New Bank Credit Facility, we received $33.8 million of net borrowings before transaction costs as a result of the increased size of the term loan, and the revolving credit facility remains undrawn, except for $17.4 million in outstanding letters of credit.
Share Repurchases. On May 12, 2022, our Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program authorizing the Company to repurchase up to $150.0 million of our common stock. On August 2, 2022, our Board of Directors authorized an increase in our share repurchase program of up to an additional $75.0 million in shares of our common stock, or a total of up to $225.0 million. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we repurchased 2.6 million shares of our common stock, at an aggregate purchase price of $25.6 million, excluding fees, commissions and other costs related to the repurchases. Since the share repurchase program was authorized, through September 30, 2023, we have repurchased a total of 9.2 million shares at an aggregate price of $100.1 million, excluding fees, commissions and other costs related to the repurchases. We did not repurchase any shares of our common stock during the third quarter of 2023.
As of September 30, 2023, we had $124.9 million remaining under the share repurchase program authorized by the Board of Directors. Additional repurchases of common stock will be made in accordance with applicable securities laws and may be made at management’s discretion within parameters set by the Board of Directors from time to time in the open market, through privately negotiated transactions, or otherwise. The share repurchase program has no time limit and does not obligate us to purchase any particular amount of our common stock. The authorization for the share repurchase program may be terminated, suspended, increased or decreased by our Board of Directors in its discretion at any time.

New Management Contracts
New Management Contract With Hinds County, Mississippi. On September 25, 2023, we announced that we signed a new management contract with Hinds County, Mississippi for up to 250 adult male pre-trial detainees at our 2,672-bed Tallahatchie County Correctional Facility in Tutwiler, Mississippi. The initial contract term is for two years, which may be extended for an additional year upon mutual agreement. We currently care for approximately 200 residents from Hinds County at the Tallahatchie facility, in addition to over 400 residents from the U.S. Marshals Service, Vermont, South Carolina, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and Tallahatchie County.
Intent to Award New Management Contract From State of Montana. On October 11, 2023, we were notified by the state of Montana of its intent to award us a new management contract for up to 120 inmates at our 1,896-bed Saguaro Correctional Facility in Eloy, Arizona. We expect to execute the contract in the short-term and begin accepting residents from Montana later in the fourth quarter of 2023. We currently care for approximately 875 residents from Hawaii and nearly 600 residents from the state of Idaho at the Saguaro Correctional Facility. We also manage the fully occupied company-owned Crossroads Correctional Center in Shelby, Montana for the State pursuant to a separate management contract.

Third Quarter 2023 Financial Results

NOTE TO SUPPLEMENTAL FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Adjusted Net Income, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, FFO, and Normalized FFO, and, where appropriate, their corresponding per share metrics are non-GAAP financial measures. The Company believes that these measures are important operating measures that supplement discussion and analysis of the Company’s results of operations and are used to review and assess operating performance of the Company and its properties and their management teams. The Company believes that it is useful to provide investors, lenders and securities analysts disclosures of its results of operations on the same basis that is used by management.
FFO, in particular, is a widely accepted non-GAAP supplemental measure of performance of real estate companies, grounded in the standards for FFO established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (NAREIT). NAREIT defines FFO as net income computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property and extraordinary items, plus depreciation and amortization of real estate and impairment of depreciable real estate and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures calculated to reflect funds from operations on the same basis. As a company with extensive real estate holdings, we believe FFO and FFO per share are important supplemental measures of our operating performance and believe they are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of REITs and other real estate operating companies, many of which present FFO and FFO per share when reporting results. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and FFO are useful as supplemental measures of performance of the Company’s properties because such measures do not take into account depreciation and amortization, or with respect to EBITDA, the impact of the Company’s tax provision and financing strategies. Because the historical cost accounting convention used for real estate assets requires depreciation (except on land), this accounting presentation assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes at a level rate over time. Because of the unique structure, design and use of the Company’s properties, management believes that assessing performance of the Company’s properties without the impact of depreciation or amortization is useful. The Company may make adjustments to FFO from time to time for certain other income and expenses that it considers non-recurring, infrequent or unusual, even though such items may require cash settlement, because such items do not reflect a necessary or ordinary component of the ongoing operations of the Company. Normalized FFO excludes the effects of such items. The Company calculates Adjusted Net Income by adding to GAAP Net Income expenses associated with the Company’s debt repayments and refinancing transactions, and certain impairments and other charges that the Company believes are unusual or non-recurring to provide an alternative measure of comparing operating performance for the periods presented.
Other companies may calculate Adjusted Net Income, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, FFO, and Normalized FFO differently than the Company does, or adjust for other items, and therefore comparability may be limited. Adjusted Net Income, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, FFO, and Normalized FFO and, where appropriate, their corresponding per share measures are not measures of performance under GAAP, and should not be considered as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities, a measure of liquidity or an alternative to net income as indicators of the Company’s operating performance or any other measure of performance derived in accordance with GAAP. This data should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related notes included in its filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
